Churails & its story
The story of Churails revolved around four women and some others who decide to attack their attackers. The story starts with establishing a line of defense. Hence, at first, these women, began their investigations, looking into the spouses of their clients. But soon, the story gets the men in their lives involved too and they shift modes; from defensive to offensive.
Now, this is a story that you would say broke stereotypes. It challenged the values associated with women and their characters. It truly was a deviation from the concretized notions that defined Pakistani women on television.
Keeping this in mind refresh your memory of Churails before we delve into the show in question.
New Show – Qatil Haseenaon Ke Naam
With the new show ready to air, we were of course excited about the trailer. But now, that we have watched it, we are not so sure of what to think of.
The trailer has a plethora of star cast; every scene is just brimming with it. In fact, you will see many from the Churails cast as well. Sarwat Gilani, Faiza Gillani, Meher Bano are some names that appeared in both projects. But is it just the cast that is similar? Not really.
When you see the teaser ad the trailer of the show, you will see that it gives a strong Churails vibe. In that show too, the women were unapologetic and well, violent in order to convey their stance. In this show as well, the women are violent and unapologetic about their violent behavior. The narrative, of course, was playing right into the hands of the stereotype; it negated that women need not be on the receiving end of the violence.
